Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike

PS3. How else will you play with yours truly?

Buy both versionsssss.

hey! this is good shit! i'm not gonna hate but i think street fighter zero (alpha) 3 released first. i was hoping they brought that back >

Its on the PSN store as a "PSone Classic" if you have a playstation 3.

SFA3 needs an online version. That was the first SF that I ever got competitive at.

are you serious? o.o i been too busy with mortal kombat... i had NO idea !! oh well i guess i'll d/l it soon lol and this sf 3 shit as well~ i was hoping capcom implimented elena into sf4 so i'll just play this one to get my elena fix

Been looking at that game now. Some stuff:

While the music is generally bad received from what I've heard, I like it a lot. Especially Elena's remix, thank god. I hate her original theme so much.

There's a lot of discussion going on about it being faulty in terms of input delay etc, but after hours of play I didn't notice any issues on a PS3. Yun combos were the usual, Ken 1F super links were the usual, Parrying felt the same as always - and I played most of my time on the PS2 version, which is rumoured to have a speed difference as well. Whatever. I've heard reports from fameous players who say the opposite - and I take their word over my own, actually - but I don't feel those issues, so I'm fine.

The trials are ridiculous. I'm playing this game for a while now and I didn't even know some of this shit is possible. It's like random combos they took out of TAS demonstration videos. Why would they have beginners practice this, please someone tell me.

Those sprite filters looked like ass. The twins became a coloured mass of blur - I just turned everything regarding that off as quickly as possible.

The achievement sidebars, the menues etc are annoying. It just doesn't look like they put effort into it. I really hate some of those new health bar icons, I can't even recognize what Q's supposed to do in his - although the character select artwork is enjoyable. Makoto looks even more like a guy now.

What's really irritating me is how it keeps asking both players about Character select/Continue while bugging you with achievement gains and the like after every match - why do both players , taking turns, have to confirm a million times in order to get a simple rematch done? It's like in BlazBlue where you set the game to BO5 so you don't have to deal with the menu and loading times as much and can actually play the damn thing. It's the same on the PS2 version where it leads you back to the Character Select after every match, but Capcom did it right in HDR, why not this port too?

That "brand new" online mode thing goes past me, I've been playing 3rd Strike online for a year now, why do I see so many people pretend they can now "finally" play it? I don't get it. Competition is a lot worse than on the old GGPO lobby as well. Not just brand new players, but a lot of people trying to play this like it's SF4 now. It started becoming that way on other online lobbies when 3SO was announced, so I was prepared.

TL;DR: Other than the music there is absolutely no reason for me to get this game. Well, I guess it does give my inner achievementwhore something to work with.

It's not out yet. You're probably thinking of Street Fighter Alpha 3 Max on PSP in the PSN store. I'm currently waiting for that title as well.

what elenas theme is godlike :[



yeah this i agree with. i play Q and one of the trials is a total destruction combo, WHY WOULD ANYBODY EVER DO THIS, MUCH LESS PICK SAIII



cant really argue with that. idk, 3S on GGPO always felt like a glitched mess to me, mainly cause the emulation wasnt that great. that was one of my draws to this: i can play with good netcode without worrying about my computer or the game crapping out at some point.

of course now 3SOE has its own share of glitches... been mostly fine.

and dealing with the bandwagon is easy, just play player matches with people you know.


...and as a random note, fuck SFA3, if any game needs a next gen port next its CVS2.

But, I can agree with this too. CvS2 also needs a next gen port.

I second this. I really want them to make one. Good thing I still play CVS 2 on my PS2.

As for Street Fighter 3rd Strike Online Edition I might wait on it a little later.

fuck sfa3??? that's so mean >< but i do agree on the capcom vs snk 2 thing! in fact.. wtf is capcom thinking? where's capcom vs snk THREE and power stone THREE? those titles definitely deserve a sequal

With SNK having KoFXIII coming around the corner, CvS3 isn't a far-fetched idea.

I like how the topic about 3rd strike turned into a completely unrelated game wishlist. Keep it up people.

I heard it has terrible input lag on the PS3 version. Not sure about getting it.

EDIT:

Capcom Vs SNK 2 online edition would be awesome.

Stop talking about crapcom vs snGAY!!!!!!! It will never happen!! Last time i checked this topic is called SF3:OE.

So what are you going to contribute?

Anyway, I havent yet played on the PS3 version, cant really talk about the input lag. I did read though that the input lag is caused by the system itself, and is present the same way it is on every game rather than a flawed port.

The best part about this game right now are the idiots playing the game like SFIV and getting pissed off at me taunting, when I play Q. orz

Me? I thought about buying the game then i said fuck it. It plays better with a fight stick rather then controller. Something i don't have. I'd rather enjoy the same game on the PC for free without all of the extra features.

Anyone try to do the last tech trial where you have to pull a Daigo yet? XD

Got some vids up on the 3S channel. Sucks that they upload it on such low quality but it's better than nothing, correct?
